Talk / Demo at ITP Oct 22, 2008

Tomorrow night (Oct 22, 2008), I’ll be giving a talk/demo for the New Interfaces for Musical Expression class at ITP. “You know… I do visuals, not music, right?” - “Yes” but Hans-Christoph still wanted me to come.

What I plan to cover:

  • Visuals as an extension to synthesized sounds
  • Oscillography
  • Function Generators into a TV / Monitor
  • More Video Synthesis at Experimental Television Center
  • Using Pure Data to emulate and expand on Video Synthesis
  • The move to handhelds: Gameboy Advance and GP2X

Show and tell will be an audio/video synth patch using Pure Data and then passing around the GP2X for people to try out.
